If you have a general knowledge of electronics, don't be put off by bad reviews.

To the people who destroy their CPU with this cap: THEY'RE DOING IT WRONG. I was very hesitant after reading these reviews but with common sense and a general knowledge of simple machinery you will find that you can nudge the little metal "pusher" a bit to make sure it doesn't get stuck in the PCB substrate digs. Just don't be a fool and this tool works great. Note that any brand of copper IHS will not fit the Relid without some modifications. Made a perfect delid the first time because I've used some common ones since.

Pros
  • 100% compatible with Kaby Lake Coffee Lake
Cons
  • Neutral
